I’ve noticed that our little group is starting to get large enough to make me realize that the site would probably benefit from having a forum set up. With that being said, I’ve started to do the legwork to get one set up. I’ve had a lot of other things on my plate, including family issues and lots of overtime at work, so I apologize for not posting more often.

Hopefully in the near future I’ll be able to post more frequently. My biggest question at this point is, what you you like to hear about or talk about? Let me know in the comment section down below. Please though, no spam advertising. If you have something that’s directly relevent to the discussion that might be of interest, then by all means. Just keep in mind that I do filter everything before I approve of the post, so keep that in mind. Hopefully, it won’t be an issue and I’ll be able to turn off the filtering and let you roam freely.

In the same vein, please no flaming or trolling. Let’s all act like adults here. Thanks again for joining up with the site and for sticking around. Have a wonderful week.

Was reading an article about quantum mechanics and the Schrodinger’s cat experiment and it got me to thinking. The whole premise of this thought experiment is that, based off of quantum mechanics, the cat existed in multiple states until observed, then the wave function collapsed and the state of the cat became known.

In other words, anything could be happening at that instant in time, but once observed, one knew the state of the cat exactly. Why is this important? Namely, until observed, any outcome is possible. If you think about it, that’s kinda how the Law of Attraction works as well. You focus on an outcome to have it happen.

Maybe the act of actually visualizing what outcome you want is collapsing the wave function to make a future event more likely. How does the universe determine something is being observed, thereby setting the state of something that could be in multiple states? Is it the actual observation that’s taking place, or is it the mental visualization in your head that’s ‘locking’ it into one state or another?

Quantum mechanics, from what I can understand of it from a layman’s perspective, seems to be very bizarre in the extreme. What one takes for example in the normal world gets turned on it’s ear in quantum mechanics. If you combine the effects of quantum mechanics on a atomic/quantum scale and combine it with the butterfly effect on a macro scale, then who’s to say that the two working in concert couldn’t allow your strongly visualized desire to come into existence?

Just something I was pondering over. I welcome your comments on whether you think this might be how the Law of Attraction might work.

Life, as of yet, has not decided to settle down around here, so I still haven’t gotten back on track with my plans. I still have every intention of going through the Photoreading course and discussing what my experience is while following the program, but with what’s been going on in my life, it’s been less than ‘optimal’ to try and do anything at all, including posting on here.

With that being said, I am still around and kicking, and I wanted to thank and welcome all the new people who’ve registered at my site. Hopefully in the coming months, I’ll be able to provide some information that you may find interesting and useful, maybe something that might be useful in your own life.

If you’re just joining us and aren’t sure what this site/blog is about. In general, it’s about how to improve your life by self help programs, audio programs, and reading materials. More specifically, it’s more focused around the Law of Attraction and how it can influence your life and how a large number of self help systems have as either part or as a base of their program a lot of the same precepts that belong to followers of the Law of Attraction.

For example, in NLP, one of their tools is to have a client “act as if” what they want is already here, or “fake it until you make it”. This is exactly the same as visualizing your intention to the universe for something you want. NLP just adds methods to make the process more focused, but it’s the same thing.

Another example is someone like Jack Canfield promoting the Sedona method (R) because the process you go through with the Sedona method will help clear and unify your mental/emotional state to allow you to perform the process of manifesting more successfully.

So hopefully, within the next month or so, I’ll be able to start posting again regularly about what I’m working on and using so you’ll get an understanding of what the program I’m going through it, what it does, and how I think it works and benefits my life. That way, you might be able to get a better idea as to how it might work in your life before spending a bunch of money on something that may not be an exact fit for what you want to accomplish.

Finally, I hope to get back on track with becoming a successful writer, both in the non-fiction and fiction arena, plus become a professional copywriter so I can finally get myself out of my current work environment and get into something move conducive to a happier lifestyle that doesn’t depend on the whims and wiles of upper management. Have a wonderful week and may everything you hope for come to you quickly.

This has been a long 3 months. The plans I made didn’t work out as planned, but it did provide me a different perspective into what the Law of Attraction is.

For the past 2 1/2 months, my Mom has been in the hospital due to what can be considered serious health conditions. More than once we thought we were going to lose her. That obviously put a halt to any plans I had for trying to keep up with this site, or anything else for that matter.

What I did learn is that the Law of Attraction can do some amazing things, but it’s not a magic bullet that fixes everything. The first time we thought we were going to lose my Mom, I focused everything into her getting better. I didn’t know what else to do under the circumstances. I had prayed that she’d get better, but to no avail. I had actually started doing the final paperwork to admit her to a facility to basically wait to die. I figured since I had nothing to lose, I went to visit her and focused on her getting better.

Since I’ve had some internal martial arts training, I focused on sending her energy and visualized her getting better. I spent about 5 minutes in deep concentration and focus on the mental picture of her getting better. Whether it was that, luck, or prayers being answered, within 24 hours, she had basically had a miraculous recovery. The doctors were baffled as to her complete turn around.

I had actually entered into my journal what I had done. Within 6 hours of my visit, she was already starting to make significant improvements. By the time we got back to visit her again, she had improved so drastically that the discharge planner didn’t know what to do. Everything that she had started to set up for us had to be scrapped because she didn’t need hospice care any more. Instead, she’s now in rehab to get strong enough to come home. In fact, she’s due to come home within the next 2 weeks.

Do I feel that what I did had a positive impact. Absolutely. Do I feel that she would have died if I hadn’t done what I had done. Again, quite certain that she wouldn’t have pulled through. Thing is, did it directly impact her health, or did a bunch of coincidences line up just right to make a difference. One thing we found out after my ‘session’ was reports that they took her off of one of the medications they were giving her. We’ve gotten mixed information on this, so we’re not 100% sure of the medication being stopped, but if it was, then it was directly causing her issues.

Was it just chance that, assuming there was a drug interaction, that it just so happened that once I exerted my will, that they would just happen to figure that since she was going to hospice to die, then she didn’t need to be taking this particular drug, which just so happened to be causing the condition in the first place?

How often can it be said that if it wasn’t for the fact that a patient was so sick that they didn’t need a medication that, after the fact, was found to be causing said issue? I’m pretty sure it doesn’t happen very often. Whatever the reasons, causes, or anything else for that matter, all I can say is that my Mom is still with us and looking forward to coming home with us.

So… What did I get out of all this and caused me to somewhat ramble through this post? Simple… The Law of Attraction isn’t a panacea, but it does help tip the scales in your favor when the need and desire is strong enough. Yes, it can be used for petty stuff, like how I was able to get a front row parking spot right at the door in underground parking 3 days before Christmas, to the point that the car was literally just pulling out of their spot just as I got there. Yeah, that’s all good and fun to experience, but to know that your parent is going to be around longer, that’s the real gold of learning how to use the Law of Attraction.

I just hope I never have to worry about trying to use it again under similar circumstances.

The light at the end of the tunnel is finally approaching. The forced overtime for where I work is supposed to be coming to an end tentatively next week. Granted, it was some nice money coming in for all the hours I worked, but there was quite a few times I would have preferred the time off instead of the paycheck. Either way, it’s coming to a close, so hopefully next week I can get back on track with my review of Photoreading.

For the little bit of time I was able to practice it, I can still see a marked impact on some areas of myself. As I mentioned previously, one of the things I did a photoread of was a thesaurus. I’m still noticing my vocabulary has significantly expanded from what it was before I tried the experiment.

I’ve been using much more descriptive words in my writing and speech, above and beyond what I would normally use. I keep catching myself using words that, while I might have known them previously, are actually coming out at appropriate times. This tells me that there’s much more that I want to try it on to see how it affects me.

Hopefully we won’t have any more major disasters on the East Coast and I’ll be able to proceed with my practice. Thanks again for hanging around during this dry spell.
